I'm really confused about Warhawk lately. People are constantly swaying back and forth over whether the game is good or if its bad. Some people say its a good game others say its a bad game. So at this point I'm not too sure of exactly what kind of game it really is as to how much quality comes with the game.

I never let someone's opinion influence my buying decision. If the game looks interesting to me I'll buy it whether or not it got a good review or a bad one. A review is just someone's opinion and should always be taken with a grain of salt.

I don't think I'll be getting it even if it gets good review. It just didn't look that good. It looked like Halo. Running, jumping, shooting mindlessly while riding multiple vehicle.

Metal Gear Online is what I'll be getting.

All the reviews told me killzone was bad. They lied.:evil: So I'll hope for the best and pick it up anyways. If worst comes to worst than at least I'll still have the headset.

well I cant see how it could be considered bad, ill tell you one thing, flying a warhawk is just awesome and the even better thing is i prefer using the sixaxis motion sensing over the analog sticks, its really responsive and feels natrual,I really dont see how anybody couldnt like it as far as online games go

hows the balance between land vehicles, warhawks, and being on-foot? is the game just a mad dash to the nearest vehicle?

When it comes from these review mags and when you add up alot reviews together its not so much an opinion when everyone is giving a game bad reviews....it just means its a bad game. Yeah one review is pretty much an opinion but when you have about 20 reviews I don't view it show much as an opinion as I look at it more like how the game really is. Gamerankings.com is what I go by and based on my experience if the game is getting lots of good reviews I tend to like those games a hell of a lot more than the games getting bad reviews and I've been gaming for a long time and I still go by that.

Another thing about review mags is they have to be honest. If they start lying about games they lose their reputation, and this leading to lossing more business. The people that review the games are paid to do...so they can't be too bias about anything when their job is on the line and if they do lie about several games and if they get fired they may have a hard time getting a job because their job requires honesty and nobody wants to hire an unhonest reviewer that may disrupt their business.

I like anything worth playing, gears of war, final fantasy, god of war, indigo prohicy, halo 1(not halo2), oblivion, Resistance fall of man, I also played battlefield games (warhawk is like this but has a more arcade fun feel to the game) I also like ico and SOTC

well it depends what kind of match your playing, team death matches can be really good for example sometimes I will hop in a warhawk andgoup a huge hill you cant get up without flying and I would knock the warhawk down the hill and sit up on top of the hill sniping off heaps of people until someone would catch on and get in a warhawk to blast me then id mad run down the hill, so it's not always hectic,you would also have a good balance of the vehicles not everyone wants to go into warhawks as ground battles are just as much fun if not more fun, it's great driving a jeep while someone is in the back with a machine gun blasting people, It's just a great online game I fo surewill be buying it

The only worry I have about Warhawk is the balance. There's so many aspects in the game and so many options that players can take during a game that I'm worried if everything will balance each other out. The gameplay could become a disaster if something is overpowered.

Where have you heard bad things about Warhawk? I have yet to see a site that has played the beta talk bad about it besides technical issues like freezing. As for negative opinions on forums thats what your gonna get with thousands of voices. Its more important to look at the ratio. For ever person that talks bad about Warhawk you have about 6 or 7 telling you how fun it is.

It really depends who you play with. Newbs will always run to the nearest vechicle and take off. Good teammates will wait for other teammates to hop on the vechicle. There is alot of ground to cover in the game and the quickest way to travel is vehicles. As for balance its pretty good if you know the game. There is a counter for just about everything. You just have to know what it is. There were alot of people crying during the beta about this being too powerful or that being too powerful until other testers told them about counter measures.

i played the beta and i loved it so yes i will be getting it for sure, especially since it comes with a blu tooth headset. For those who just arent sure just give it a rent (or demo it, i think they will be releasing a demo)

Yes I would because I was in the beta I still havent change my sig yet (lol keep forgetting everytime Im about to). The game is balance and by what it said on ign they even made it more balanced. People didnt really run to the jeeps and tanks unless it was a huge level and was playing conquest mode.

Not sure tbh. I won't base my pruchase entirely on reviews but will decide whether the cost involved is worth it for an online only game. I've got BF2 and BF2142 and they don't get nearly enough attention for £25 products :(

excatly, i dont either, i honestly dont give 2 cents about others opinions on games, if i see a game that interests me, and i like wat i see, ill buy it regardless if it gets bad reviews or not, there are few games that got bad reviews, but still ppl like me loved them and got em anyways......if ur really uncertain of a game, just rent it, cuz if u listen to others who say its bad or good, they just tellin u that they like it....warhawk could be the best game in augest, ppl mite not like it and say mehh was ok, not gettin it, while others loved it, so either rent it, or go with ur guts feeling, i usually go with my gut feeling and so far 125% i was never wrong!! i swear to u, all games i owned since ps until now, i never looked at their reviews i just went out and got it, just recently when ps3 came out i start to snoop around to see wats up.

I was never planning on buying it.. at least not straight away.. I'll wait a while untill it drops in price or I might just buy it for the headset.. spending 40-60 bucks for a headset alone feels like a waste of money for me but buying a game for 40 bucks and a headset for 20 feels like a pretty good deal.. too bad the game is online only and I'm not really into online games.. the only games I really played alot online where red alert 2 and counter strike force.. and both because I had some real life friends playing them I could play with. ( and I have no real life friends with a ps3 at the moment)

I'm still getting this game no matter what, I know this is the kinda game that I'd enjoy but maybe not many others, for instance I'm a fan of DW games but they score really low, plus I NEED the headset!! its a really good deal for the bundle regular headsets cost $50+ alone.

Honestly, Weather I buy it or not depends on when Heavenly Sword comes out. If HS is delayed to like.. the middle of september, then I'll probably get it.

No, of course not. It looks like a really cool game, but I've never played it. So if people who played it say it sucks I'd have to believe them.

WMDfreeman99

you can buy it on Blu Ray for $60 (you get the game, a Jabra BT125 Bluetooth headset, and some "behind the scenes" footage) , or you can download it over PSN for a cheaper price (PSN price not known yet; a Warhawk dev team member said that he believes it should cost $40).

Then you must have a lot of money to waste.

so because somebody gives a game a bad review, and I still go buy it, that's wasting my money? Does it not matter if I liked the game?

so what if Lair gets a 4.0 from Gamespot and I still buy the game and love it, is that wasting my money?

I will wait and see how it compares to UT3, Im sure alot of people will like this game though.
